Peyton's PoV

I woke up to the irritating sound of my alarm. I put on my favourite ripped jeans with a crop top and checkered shirt. I looked in my organiser before placing it in my bag. I didn't even realise I had a history essay due , why am I such a dumb ass? I grabbed my phone and quickly text Lily , thank god she had done it , and said I could copy.

Lily has been my best friend since the beginning of high school. For some reason , we just clicked , like we were meant to be bestfriends. I had to leave to get to her house so I had enough time to copy , then I agreed I would drive us as her brother wanted to take her car. Oh and have I mentioned her brother yet? - . Well , his name is Corey , he's 19 and one of the most beautiful human beings ever to exist. He had brown hair , blue eyes , and had a heart of gold. He's always really nice to me when I'm round there , and we joke around with each other. I just wish he was my age, I feel like because I'm younger , and because I'm his little sisters friend it would never work. It's not that I want a full relationship with him and I sound like a cringy 13 year old with her first crush , but c'mon he is hot!

I stood outside of Lily's house waiting for her to answer. Corey came to the door and opened it in his underwear. I wasn't quite sure what to say and his cheeks had a tint of very bright red in them. ' oh um Peyton , I'm sorry I was just getting dressed , Lily's in the backyard' he said looking embarrassed making way for me to get past him. ' it's okay don't worry ' I replied giggling slightly. I didn't mind , he had a really nice body so I couldn't complain.

Their house was extremely large so it took me a minute or two to get to the backyard. ' hello , sorry about my brother being half naked back there ' she giggled handing me the essay to copy from.

'no don't worry it's good , thanks for letting me copy , I'll be 10 minutes tops' I replied.

We sat there whilst I was copying when Corey came outside. ' Lil let me borrow your charger ' he pleaded. ' you never give it back!' She said looking up at him. ' but c'mon my phones on 28% and I need to leave !' He pleaded again getting onto his knees. I giggled and offered him mine as I didn't need it , I always had it for emergency's incase I was going out and my phone ran out , but it was only school so I can come and pick it up later.

'Here you can use mine , but can I come pick it up later?' I said handing it to him. ' oh my gosh your such a babe thank you! Give me your number I'll drop it by your house' he said giving me a friendly kiss on the cheek , and I blushed. I exchanged numbers with him and he left.

'Stop fucking blushing over my brother!' Lily shouted playfully. ' no , no I'm not ' I replied coming out of a daze , reminiscing the kiss on the cheek I was given a minute before hand. ' you can never go near each other that would gross me out !' Lily laughed. I giggled back and we picked up the books and headed for my car.

We arrived at school and lily headed over to her boyfriend , Sam. He was lovely , a really bubbly person, and such a joker , there was never a moment when you weren't laughing with him around.

They are probably my relationship goals. They've been together since freshman year , me however , I've had one boyfriend in my entire life. That was for 5 days in the 4th grade, and I got dared to do it. None of the boys in my school are genuine. They'd ask you out on a date , be nice , then try to have sex with you in their grandfathers Cadillac. Yep , I'm talking about me here.

I was sitting down in my science class , and I couldn't help but day dream about Corey. For some reason , I've always had a strong attraction to him. Ever since I first went round to see Lily. I mean he is 19, but my 18th birthday is in 4 months so , I don't think age gaps matter. I remember when we were at a sleepover about a year ago , it was me , lily , Corey and his friend Lucas. We all stayed in the living room , and Lily and Lucas fell asleep so Corey and I were watching a horror movie as we weren't tired.

I started moving closer to him as I was shitting my pants from watching the movie. A scary scene came up and I grabbed him , making him jump. We both looked at each other and stared at each other , looking at each other's lips. He started to lean in when a light flickered on , so he pulled away. We looked awkwardly at each other then he went upstairs. I couldn't help but wonder , to this day , what would've happened if their mom didn't put that light on.

It was the end of the school day , and tomorrow was the last day for summer , I was so excited, I hated the shit hole. I got in my car and drove home without saying bye to Lily because she was playing a hardcore game of tonsil hockey with Sam , so I decided not to interrupt.

I pulled up outside and went inside. I went upstairs , and put on some sweats and checked my snapchat. I was scrolling down when a text came through , from Corey. - . ' hello it's Corey , sorry I won't be round till 5 to drop your charger off , but I promise I'll be there , thanks again 😊x ' - . He put a smiley face the cute little sunflower , and a kiss aw he was so polite. I replied with a simple ' okay , and no problem anytime😊x'

I'm glad he wasn't coming over to drop it till later , I could make myself look presentable. I just put on some concealer and brushed my hair , as it was already naturally straight.

It was 5pm on the dot , when I heard the doorbell ring. I ran down the stairs and opened the door. ' here you go babe ' he said handing me the charger. Did he just call me babe , again?. ' it's honestly no problem , anytime' I replied casually. ' sorry to sound rude , but can I use your bathroom , I really need to go ' he said giggling. I nodded and laughed and pointed him into the direction of the bathroom.

He came out , and I opened the door again and he tripped , landing extremely close to my face. We were both heavily breathing , and the intensity was extreme. ' urm , thanks again , really thanks ' he said shaking my hand awkwardly. He left and I stood there at my door for several minutes. I know I shouldn't feel this way , but I can't cope with the temptation.
